Famitsu Reviews Pikmin 3

The latest edition of Japanese gaming publication Famitsu has the first review of the long-awaited Pikmin 3 for Wii U. The magazine awarded the Wii U exclusive a more than respectable 37/40. The four reviewers awarded the game three 9′s and one perfect 10. Pikmin 3 launches in Europe on July 26th and in North America on August 4th.

Uhh howdy! Benny don’t be so naive. You see when developers make games for many regions they have coders who translate the text in each respected language. The game for the most part remains the same. Benny when I get home from work this evening you better have supper ready, I’m ready to just chow down!

Uhh howdy! Oh please. I’m embarrassing you? I’m embarrassed to tell people you’re my son. I love you and understand your issues but you need know people are here to help you because we love you. Remember to pray for your sorry ass because if I come home and supper isn’t not made, you’re in a world of hurt. You’re lucky our lord Jesus is nice, but with you sometimes its hard to spread the love of Christ.

Uhh howdy! Yeah, that’s what I thought. I also took the time to pre-order 2 new games at Gamestop for us. Pikmin 3 was actually one of them and I pre-ordered GTA V. But frankly you aren’t mature enough to play GTA V because it’s rated M for mature and not E10+ or lower. Sorry Benny.

Uhh howdy! I’m sorry to burst your bubble there but I have my own account and my Benny doesn’t have the password to this WordPress account. I use it to monitor his online activity as his behavior has been a bit reckless these recent months. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Uhh howdy! Benjamin Andrew Eugene Sanders. Watch your fucking language you little shit! Don’t be rude to Quartz. All he had was a simple question simply asking “What friends?”. You could have easily answered without being a scumbag.

Uhh howdy! I don’t want to hear it Benny. Get your sweet ass off the internet and finish supper. I’ll be home in 30 minutes to beat you with those large carrots the rabbit refuses to eat. No more MyNintendoNews or internet in general for the rest of the night you son of a bitch!

I think both are awesome. I liked the time limit in the first one because it forced me to be smart and skillful. But I didn’t like the time limit because it stressed me out. Also I can 100% the game in under 6 hours I think. Pikmin 2 is significantly longer with more enemies, bosses, and treasures. The feeling of exploration is increased, as well as 2(or 3) additional Pikmin types to add depth to the puzzles. On the other hand, anyone can beat the game if they gather dozens of the Bitter/Spicy sprays, and there is no time limit. So some of the challenge is gone. Plus the purples are kind of overpowered. Overall, I like the 2nd one more, but I can totally understand the opposite.

Uhh hello! i want 2 let u no that homosexality is wrong and bad and u will burn in hell for it and i dont wanna see that hapen becuase i love u and u r my frend. u can tweet me and can consil u with ur isues.!!

No, heterosexuality is the bad one. Those guys don’t even WANT to get married; heck they hate marriage so much that then don’t want the healthy 10% of the population (homosexuals) to be able to fix it.

They want society to fail in a polygamous origin of abandoned and aborted orphans. If gay people can’t take over society WE’LL ALL DIE!!!

It’s a start though. It’s one of Nintendo’s IPs that is still relatively new, so it ISN’T Mario or Zelda, and once this comes out, we’ll be getting one Wii U game per month. It’ll start with these two, then Zelda Wind Waker HD (I didn’t play the original, so this will be for me), then Donkey Kong, then Mario.

I agree. I think Pikmin has potential to be up there with Mario, Zelda and Pokemon. The difference is that those games have been around for about 25 years, so they have quite the fanbase. Pikmin on the other hand has only been around for 12. I think that putting Olimar in SSBB helped a lot in getting the name out there though.

Pikmin 3 and The Wonderful 101 won’t be system sellers in the sense that they’ll cause a huge turnaround for the Wii U, but I assure you that the sales of the system will improve a respectable amount due to these 2 games.

The same people who want to play Assassin’s Creed 4, dumbass.
WW is an awesome game, and it’s definitely going to be a system seller now that there have been changes to sailing speed and the Triforce quest.

A Miyamoto game not a system seller? Besides Wii Music, Mario is, Zelda is, Donkey Kong…well sales seem to indicate it would be. So why wouldnt another Miyamoto game not be? Pikmin 3 isnt a Smash Bros but alot of people bought a Wii U for Pikmin 3. It’ll raise sales by a fair amount.

Pikmin is a genius game, fun a hell, but it’s not as mainstream as the Mario Kart games and such… A lot of people don’t understand what it is, and it’s hard to explain (in my opinion) Nintendo would probably do well to invest in developing demo, or something so people can experience it. Maybe a tutorial Demo.

Especially If you’re used to playing the first 2 on the GameCube like me. The first one is 12 years old and I still think it looks good. Pikmin 2 was a little better visually, but not much. Now fast forward 9 years to Pikmin 3…
Jaws be droppin’.

People are always bitching about Resolution and framerate , whilst they are important. it’s the actual graphics that matter.

For example , imagine if there was a game which litteraly had the same graphics as real life right. If it was rendered at 720p 30FPS , it would still destroy anything that was out today by a hundred times over.

No they’re not, you fool.
So my wonder is about a drought. You know what I mean? You said something about a drought.
So anyway I saw my friend play Pikmin 2 so I think that Pikmin 3 should be a 39/40 when it comes out. But i’ll play it. What devices are it going to come out on?

i pre-ordered it today. i dont even know whether i like this game, i never played any except pikmin mini game on nintendo land(was a bit fun), but im just desperate to play a title developed exclusively too Wii U using it’s features.. I hope it’s good.

Sons of Pikmin, of Nintendo, my brothers,
I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me.
A day may come when the courage of Pikmin fails,
when we forsake our friends
and break all bonds of fellowship,
but it is not this day.
An hour of bulborbs and shattered helmets,
when the age of Pikmin comes crashing down,
but it is not this day!
This day we fight!
By all that you hold dear on this good PNF-404,
I bid you stand, Men of Hocotate!

never played pikmin but i have had my eyes on it lately. i used to think it looked pathetic until i noticed that its one of the ips nintendo doesnt milk and also is one of the newest ips by them. so whats better pikmin on gamecube or the wii???? like pikmin one is cheap on gamecube but cost way more on wii but the second one is really expensive on gamecube but cheap on the wii. what ones are better????

imo the wii ones are better, because of the improved targeting, but any ways, you’re right the community here is horrible. I’d say it’s 10X worse than N4G, 100X worse than gonintendo, and 1000X worse than nintendoeverything and all of these sites report news 10000X faster than MNN,

im more of a fan that wishes nintendo to be back how they were, now they arnt what they could be. its pathetic because if anybody else was in nintendos position say sony, they would have died a long time ago. nintendo CAN do a lot better than what they have become and i hope they can fix it. like the other day i was going to play dk64, been like 3 years, but it died……… nnoooooooo stupid battery!!!!!
